Conveyancing in Glastonbury – Key Points for Buyers

Property transactions involve serious legal and financial obligations and require an awareness of what to look out for; therefore, having a Conveyancing Solicitor to act on your behalf is recommended. A solicitor can help if things go awry during the process. Just when you think you’ve found your dream home or have a ‘secured’ offer from a buyer, something can go wrong and it’s back to square one!

Buyers Mr. and Mrs. D were well aware of this and in order to avoid any complications they were quick to instruct Fridays’ Conveyancing in Glastonbury team to assist with their home purchase. Katie Clark headed the transaction for the freehold, located on Merrick Road, Glastonbury, Somerset, BA6, in April 2010.

Katie has worked on numerous Conveyancing transactions, not just in Glastonbury, but throughout the UK and offers the following advice for buyers to be aware of:

• if your offer’s refused, only increase it if you can afford future repayments
• if the offer’s accepted, insist the property’s taken off the market to prevent ‘gazumping’ – when another buyer makes a higher offer
• surveys are essential and will uncover major structural or planning issues; instruct a Solicitor to investigate title deeds and ensure all is in order
• investigate all problems as your mortgage application could be refused if they are not reconciled
• nothing is finalised until the exchange of contracts so don’t make any commitments prior to this

Katie was proactive and maintained effective communication between all the involved parties to facilitate a smooth overall transaction.

The home is located in authority district of Mendip council at Cannards Grave Road, Somerset, BA4 5BT.
